To solve dynamic Sylvester equation in the presence of additive noises, a novel recurrent neural network (NRNN) with finite-time convergence and excellent robustness is proposed and analyzed in this paper. As compared with the design process of Zhang...
BACKGROUND: Past studies have shown that robot-based intervention was effective in improving gestural use in children with autism spectrum disorders (ASD). The present study examined whether children with ASD could catch up to the level of gestural p...
